Description:
The writer and director of "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" delivers another a hilarious hit comedy that's bursting at the seams with never-before-seen-footage! They say that opposites attract. Well, for slacker Ben (Seth Rogen) and career girl Alison (Katherine Heigl), that's certainly the case - at least for one intoxicated evening. Two months and several pregnancy tests later, Ben and Alison go through a hysterically funny, anxious and awkward courtship that leads to huge laughs in the biggest comedy of the year!
Amazon.com:
Unwanted pregnancy might sound like a risky subject for slapstick comedy, but Knocked Up is from writer-director Judd Apatow--so we are in the hands of a man who likes to push things. And like Apatow's predecessor, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up is a shaggy crowd-pleaser, a comedy strewn with vulgarity but with a sweet heart at its center. A one-night stand between the utterly mismatched Ben (Seth Rogen, his first starring role) and Alison (Katherine Heigl) results in said pregnancy, and the two people reunite for mutual support--even though they barely know each other. Ben's a slob who lives with four other guys, all of whom share the same stunted approach to maturity; Alison is a new on-air personality at the E! channel. That these two eventually develop a shared understanding and affection is perhaps the movie's biggest stretch (some of the male-humor jokes amongst the guys are idiotic enough to test anybody's hope of civilizing them).
Rogen and Heigl don't really jump off the screen, but, to be fair, the movie frequently needs them to play straight while the supporting cast cuts up. Virgin vets Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd are around to supply some humor, as Alison's sister and brother-in-law, and the four idiots who live with Ben (Jay Baruchel, Jonah Hill, Jason Siegel, and Martin Starr) are in their own zone of sophomoric bad taste. Still, by 40-Year-Old Virgin standards, this movie doesn't explode, and it sometimes feels ramshackle to the point of not being thought out. Apatow's indulgence of actors creates some fine moments (Paul Rudd seems to have most of them), but it can also make a movie feel flabby, and this one is overlong by the length of a belly. --Robert Horton

.. that this film wasn't the one that I thought it was going to be, namely a historical summary of cricket bat manufacture from 1703 to 1987 complete with an "Inside Duncan Fearnley" bonus DVD and a sound track featuring Geoff Boycott narrating his "100 best forward defensive shots".
Look people, you have to be somewhat simpleminded to get Knocked Up and then be offended by crass humour, fat blokes getting off with beautiful women, possible fart gags and rude words/nudity. What on ... Read More

I have seen this movie many times. This movie is so funny. I put this movie on when I need a laugh.
I have to say that people who are offended by crude humor this may not be the movie for you.

A movie aimed directly at the 14-15 y.o., high school dropout audience--you know that segment of the population still titillated by the F-word. Unfunny, stupid, and totally unbelievable. An attractive young woman with everything going for her gets drunk and has sex with a stupid, foul-mouthed, unattractive, overweight man who has exactly nothing going for him. In the morning she wants to chew off her arm when she sees what she has been sleeping up but when she finds out she's pregnant--wonder of ... Read More

How is it possible that so many people are clueless about what a Judd Apatow movie entails? Scores of these reviews condemn this movie for being too crass, offensive, etc., as if they were expecting a Billy Wilder romp instead of a movie made in another century. This is the guy who has given us a wealth of movies which all tap extensively if not exclusively into the lowbrow, locker room, sophomoric comedic vein that is ala mode. Why would you think this offering would be any different?
